Pavel Buchnevich
"Pavel Buchnevich The Fake"
Rangers have a logjam of winger prospects that are about to push for an NHL spot next season, if not earlier (Perreault, Othmann, Berard). Unlikely there’s more than two spots available, and there may only be one.
There’s nothing necessarily wrong with Othmann. He probably projects as a middle six winger, but they can’t all play for the Rangers. If you’d rather have Brett Berard (some Ranger fans prefer him to Othmann), he’s also available. Before anyone asks, no to trading Perreault. I’d ask for a LHD or C prospect back. Can also be a young NHL’er. Middle six or middle pair potential from the player is likely the ask.
